There is a ton of confounding to this but…I believe I work better when the sun is out. Yesterday I wasted an entire day. I don’t mean part of the day, I mean I woke up at a reasonable hour with the expectation of working and instead sat on the couch and watched bad television.

I can blame it in part to the reality that I hadn’t heard from S because he was somewhere over some body of water or land mass that I could not reach…but since this morning I still haven’t heard from him but the sun is shining and I am halfway finished with the paper for tomorrow’s class, I think I’ll deduce that the while S’s absence didn’t help, the dreary weather definitely hurt.

I do wonder how people do it…function in the cold and the wet. All it ever makes me want to do is curl up in bed with a good book, or o the couch with TV.

Ultimately I can make myself push on…I’ve done it before I’ll do it again, but oh how I love the glorious sun in a bright blue clear sky. It makes all the difference in the world to me.
